A good novel. There are some big twists and it certainly doesn't go the way you expect it to, which is great. You are able to doubt everybody that comes into contact. I love novels set in small villages, as I think there's so much potential with the "everybody knows everybody" atmosphere. I actually live in Wiltshire, where this novel is set, too, so I think this was executed quite well. On some of the more serious matters, it is clear the author did a lot of research to get things right.

My main criticism is there are a lot of story lines for a lot of characters. I felt I didn't get to spend enough time with any ''one' character to give me a real connection, and I love to feel a connection to characters when I'm reading.

That said, for those who like twisty tales with unreliable narrators, I would recommend and imagine many will enjoy this book. Thanks for my copy!
